This is a list of the albums ranked number one in the United States during 2024. The top-performing albums and EPs in the U.S. are ranked on the Billboard 200 chart, which is published by Billboard magazine. The data is compiled by Luminate based on multi-metric consumption as measured in album-equivalent units, which comprise album sales, track sales, and streams on digital music platforms. Each unit equals one album sold, or 10 individual digital tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album.
In 2024, twenty-four albums reached number one on the Billboard 200. The Tortured Poets Department, the eleventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, is the longest-running number-one album of the year with 17 cumulative weeks atop the chart. It broke several all-time Billboard 200 records, including becoming the first album by a female artist to spend its first 12 weeks at the chart's number-one spot. It also earned over 2 million album-equivalent units in its first week—the largest sum of the year and a record seventh album by Swift to earn more than a million units in a week.
Short n' Sweet, the sixth studio album by American singer Sabrina Carpenter, spent four weeks at number one. One Thing at a Time by American country singer Morgan Wallen and Chromakopia by American rapper Tyler, the Creator both spent three weeks at number one. Future and Metro Boomin's collaborative albums We Don't Trust You and We Still Don't Trust You topped the chart. Future also released the number-one mixtape Mixtape Pluto, making him the first rap artist to have three number one albums in the same year.
